The Skatalites feat. Justin Hinds and Billy Ward & The Dominoes Lyrics
"Over the River"

Time stains like red wine
Please pass on by
So I can be by your side
Oh, together we're the best of us
You, my New York love

Fight fire with fire
And rain down on me, rain down
You lift my love up higher
From the broken glass
to the clouds
You see through eyes that love like
Salvador

Chains wrap round cold days
Heavy like hearts in pain
Sometimes I just can't think straight
Oh whenever I see stars above
I see you, my New York love

Fight fire with fire
And rain down on me, rain down
You lift my love up higher
From the broken glass
to the clouds
You see through eyes that love like
Salvador

Over the city, over the river
Over the statue of the hero
and his lover
Over the city, over the soldier,
Over the crowd
where the people sing
La la la la la la la la la la

Salvador
Salvador
